Emacs support?

It would be very nice to have. Maybe it could be accomplished using

using TerminalExtensions causes iTerm2 to become unresponsive

I wanted to give this tool a try now that iTerm2 terminal extensions are in the wild. I pulled and built julia this morning and on the latest commit. I also checked-out Compat and TerminalExtensions to make sure I was on their latest commit as well. Compat is at 546eccb and TerminalExtensions is at 1402947. ITerm2 is Build 3.0.2.

I don't know how to give more debug assistance or how to further assist this issue since using TerminalExtensions causes my terminal to become unresponsive.

v1 Missing show for media MIME?

I'm trying to get this to work for me in v1 since I used to love using this tool. I havent been able to get it to work, so i've put together what I think a MWE is and I'm running into a missing show method for a Base64EncodePipe. I

I've put this tiny png image into an buffer and try to display it directly as follows

so I define Base.show and added an IO field to the InlineDisplay so I could send output to stderr and pipe that to hd to see what was going on and this is what I got.

julia> Base.show(io::IO, ::MIME"image/png", x) = show(io, x)

When I manually base64encoded the buffer, it didnt look like this either.

Is this user error or is something broken here?

Typing during initialization causes a failure to detect the response

If I start typing as Julia is starting up with TerminalExtensions in my .juliarc.jl, it fails to recognize that and fails to parse the response code (which is then spewed onto the prompt).

It seems like the test for bytes waiting on STDIN at TerminalExtensions.jl:44 isn't quite working. Perhaps it needs to yield first?

Ideally, TerminalExtensions would be able to grab the available bytes, do its request, and then put them back at the prompt. But there'd still be a race where the user could corrupt the response by typing within some window. I've not looked into this yet, but there's probably no way to do this on another IO stream, is there?

Occasional assertion failure when interrupting REPL output

Sometimes, when interrupting the REPL output, I hit an assertion failure. It doesn't happen all the time, but with the following test case I can typically trigger it within 3-4 interruptions, on both the 0.3 release branch and today's master (10f9289).

I think this might actually be a Julia bug, but I've not managed to track it down yet.

Broken in julia 0.4.2?

Hi there, would love to use the figure cat in iTerm but this doesn't seem to work for me on Julia 0.4.2. Error is:

julia> using TerminalExtensions
...
ERROR (unhandled task failure): UndefVarError: start_reading not defined
 [inlined code] from /Users/me/.julia/v0.4/TerminalExtensions/src/TerminalExtensions.jl:201
 in anonymous at task.jl:447

Might this be related to JuliaLang/julia#1925 ?

There's also a bunch of warnings about WARNING: Base.Uint8 is deprecated, use UInt8 instead. but I assume that's unrelated. (I'm very new to Julia so I'm not really sure how to address this.)

Plots.jl

The output from Plots.jl cannot be rendered. Errors or broken images are produces.

https://github.com/tbreloff/Plots.jl

Text is sometimes (but not always) displayed on 0.6 with PyPlot figures

The following code produces a bunch of text with julia 0.6.0, iTerm2 3.0.15, and the latest master of TerminalExtensions (f0d8a52).

import TerminalExtensions
import PyPlot
fig, ax = PyPlot.subplots()
ax[:plot]([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
display(fig); println()
display(fig); println()
PyPlot.close(fig)

The first display(fig) produces text like this (the text is truncated):

iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAicAAAGgCAYAAABxDccgAAAABHNCSVQICAgIfAhkiAAAAAlwSFlzAAAPYQAAD2EBqD+naQAAIABJREFUeJzs3Xl8FIX9//HX5g4hWc4kQAKCARKOXHgQPPBAERCJKGDi70tb0W8PLkWpQq1WsYYWUbmKWr8V2xoQUEERRcQCIlCFJJBw3wlHwpndHGST7M7vD7/ftFhANiSZzeb9fDzm8egOM5n3Wsy8nc/MrsUwDAMRERERD+FjdgARERGRf6dyIiIiIh5F5UREREQ8isqJiIiIeBSVExEREfEoKiciIiLiUVRORERExKOonIiIiIhHUTkRERERj6JyIiIiIh5F5UREREQ8ip/ZAa6Ey+Xi+PHjhIaGYrFYzI4jIiIiV8AwDEpKSmjfvj0+Pld+PaRRlJPjx48THR1tdgwRERGphYKCAqKioq54+0...

The second display(fig) displays the figure. This describes the behavior if you open a julia REPL and run that code line by line. If you put it in a file and include("filename.jl"), the behavior is a bit different. The first time you include it, text is displayed twice and no figures are displayed. On subsequent includes, the figure is displayed twice.

using terminalextensions breaks plots with plotlyjs backend in 0.6

With TerminalExtensions, attempts to plot(1:10) with the plotlyjs backend result in

Error showing value of type Plots.Plot{Plots.PlotlyJSBackend}:
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching handle_new_from_data(::String)
The applicable method may be too new: running in world age 21869, while current world is 21889.

When TerminalExtensions is not loaded via ~/.juliarc.jl, plots work.

Freezes julia session under a variety of circumstances

I have had some problems with TerminalExtensions freezing my julia session so that I can't type anything and things like Ctrl-C have no effect. It seems to occur in a variety of situations. I am using TerminalExtensions 0.4.0, iTerm2 3.2.3 and have reproduced it with julia 0.7.0 and 1.0.1. Here is a simple example that reproduces it on my machine from the start of a fresh julia session:

1. type using TerminalExtensions and hit return
2. type a
3. hit the backspace key twice
4. type a
5. hit the backspace key
6. now the julia session is frozen

I have also run into similar freezes when using tab completion, but haven't been able to come up with a reproducible example of this. Maybe the issues are related?

Everything isn't detected and configured automatically

I've installed iTerm2 nightly and tested image display and command history works in the terminal. My .juliarc.jl:

using TerminalExtensions, PyPlot

PyPlot works, but I don't see any of the features of terminal enhancement - I'm not testing image display here, but even things like command completion, marking or history doesn't do anything.

I'm on OSX 10.9.3, iterm 1.0.0.20140525-nightly

Trouble getting set up

Disclaimer: I've never used Julia before.

First I tried just putting "using TerminalExtensions" in my ~/.juliarc.jl, but I get this error:

ERROR: TerminalExtensions not found
 in require at loading.jl:39
 in include at boot.jl:238

 in _start at client.jl:391
at /Users/georgen/.juliarc.jl:1

So I cloned your git repo and modified my juliarc to:
push!(LOAD_PATH, "/Users/georgen/git/TerminalExtensions.jl/src")
using TerminalExtensions

But then I got this error:

ERROR: Terminals not defined

I've installed Julia-0.3.0-prerelease-547facf2c1 for Mac OS, which is the most recent version I found (it's a nightly snapshot, so I'd think it would have everything?)

Since Base.Terminals seems to be part of the standard library, I'm not quite sure what to do next.

Paste bracketing warning in iTerm2

This warning came up when I installed and added the suggested line to .juliarc.jl

Please send ShellIntegrationVersion

It looks like there's a function to send the shell integration version, but it is not called. iTerm2's bash shell integration script had a bug for a while where it did not send ShellIntegrationVersion and I'd like to be able to ask those users to upgrade. It's hard to tell bash from Julia if neither sends this code, though. I suggest:

    function shell_version_number()
        return "\033]1337;ShellIntegrationVersion=1;shell=julia\007"
    end

I think you'd want to call the function after if startswith(itermname, "ITERM2"), although I don't understand the Julia-specific parts well enough to be sure about that.

Are there plans to add tmux support?

I use tmux with iterm2.

iterm2 Build 3.0.10

there seems to be problems using iterm2 Build 3.0.10.

the images are broken.

Problem with latest iterm?

I love TerminalExtensions. It allows me to use LightGraphs and GraphPlot to visualize graph structures.

That said, I just installed a new version of iterm (Build 2.9.20151111) on a new mac and am no longer able to view the graphplots: this used to work:

using LightGraphs, GraphPlot
g = Graph(10,10)
gplot(g)

and would draw the graph inside the REPL. Now, I get Compose output:

TerminalExtensions.jl hangs

if you use Julia 0.5 with tmux, TerminalExtensions.jl hangs forever.

if you use Julia 0.4 with tmux, TerminalExtensions.jl does not work as well but at least produces only an error message.

start_reading not defined

I just installed TerminalExtensions, and got the following error message. Prior to that, I simply installed the package and then added atreplinit((_)->require(:TerminalExtensions)) to my .juliarc.jl as described, and restarted julia.

This hangs regardless if it's in .juliarc.jl or when called in REPL with using TerminalExtensions. Control-D crashes the terminal window.

Change `.juliarc.jl` to `~/.julia/config/startup.jl` in README?

Currently, the README says:

Simply put atreplinit((_)->Base.require(:TerminalExtensions)) in your .juliarc.jl and everything should be detected and configured automatically.

Should it instead say this?

Simply put atreplinit((_)->Base.require(:TerminalExtensions)) in your ~/.julia/config/startup.jl and everything should be detected and configured automatically.

iTerm detection script fails when inside tmux

The section in TerminalExtensions.jl that sends "\e[1337n\e[5n" fails to detect iTerm support when running inside a tmux session.
